1. A method of producing adult pluripotent stem cells from mammalian exocrine glandular tissue, wherein said exocrine glandular tissue is isolated from a salivary gland, lacrimal gland, sudoriferous gland or sebaceous gland, and wherein said pluripotent adult stem cells are—after culturing under spatial conditions which ensure three-dimensional contact of the cells—capable of differentiating into cell types of all three germ layers in a culture medium that does not contain any additional growth factors or differentiation factors, the method comprising the following steps:
the exocrine glandular tissue is mechanically and enzymatically divided in such a manner that the cell structures in the resulting tissue fragments are largely preserved; the divided tissue is cultured in an adherent culture; the adherent cells persisting in the culture are further cultured and nonadherent differentiated cells are separated by a change of medium; and adult pluripotent stem cells are obtained from the culture. |
